| CHAPTER VIL.
THE BROWNKS ARRIVE,
ONTRARY to all expectations,
| the Brownes arrived the next
morning. The Deppinghams
and their miserably frightened
servants were scarcely out of bed
when Saunders came in with the news
that a steamer was standing off the
shallow harbor, Bowles had telephon-
ed up that the American claimant was
op board.
The deepest gloom pervaded the
housebold when Lads Deppingham
| discovered that not one of their reti-
hue knew how to make coffee or broil
bacon—not that she cared for bacon,
but that his lordship always asked for
it when they did not have it.
Bromley upset the last peg of endur-
ance by hoping that the Americans
were bringing a cook
maid with thet.
“The Americans always travel like
lords.” she concluded, forgetting that
she served a lord and not in the least
intending to be fronical,
“That will do, Bromiey," sald her
mistress sharply. “If they're like most
Americans I've seen they'l) have noth
ing but wet nurses and chuuffeurs, 1
can't eat this vile stuff. Come on,
Deppy. Let's go up and watch the ap
proach of the enemy.”
Scurcely balf an tour passed before
the udvgnee guard of the Browne com

below, Deppingham recalled the facs
that an bour and a balf bad been con
sumed in the accomplishinent yester-
day. He was keeping a sharp lookout
for the magic red jacket and the Tom.

Deppingbain’s wrath did not really
explode until the two were gazing
|
and a house |
open mouthed upon Robert Browne and |
his wife and bis maidservants and
his ass, for that was the name which
his lordship subsequently applied, with
ho moderation, to the unfortunate gen-
tleman who served as Mr. Browne's
attorney, The Americans were being
swiftly, cozily carried to their new
home In litters of oriental comfort and
elegance, fanned vigorously from both
sides by eager boys, First came the

red jacket was conspicuously absent.
It is not to be wondered at that his
lordship iooked at bis wife, gulped in
sympathy aud then suid something
memorable,
Almost before they could realize
whut had happened the newcomers
were chattering In the spacious balls
below, tramping about the rooms and
giving orders in high, though appur-
} ently efficacious voices. Close at their
heels trooped the servants, all of
whom took part in the discussion in-
| cident to fresh discoveries, At last
they came upon the greut balcony,
pausing just outside the French win-
dows to exclaim anew in their delight
“Great!” said the lawyer man after
a full minute. “Fine&t I've ever seen!
Isn't it a picture, Browne?"
“Glorious!” said young Mr. Browne,
, taking a long breath, The Depping-
hama, sitting unobserved, saw that he
was a tall, good looking fellow, ‘They
were unconscionably amused when he

“The impudence of ‘em!’ was all |

At that moment the American party

“Permit me to intruduce myself, 1)

“Oh,” said Deppy, as if that did not |
convey anything to him. Then, as an)
afterthought, “Glad to know you, I'm |
sure.” Still he did not rise, nor did he |
extend bis hand. For a moment young
Browne waited, a dull red growing in
his temples.
“Don't you Intend to present me to

bluntly without taking bis eyes from

Accompanied by ao native and a

Mine, Harry set out from Gabes, 90
miles west of which the salt desert
begins. As far as eye can see it is 4
dead white plain of saltpetre and
magnesium crystals, without a vestige
of vegetation,
The silence is appalling. No birds,
no snakes, not even a fly or a mos-
quito is to be seen. There is a nar-
row pathway through the marsh, and
natives have rammed in wooden posts
j here and there as warnings against
specially dangerous, places. These
stick out of the glittering surface like
masts of sunken wrecks.
The salt mud is a moving mass
which continuously throws up to the
surface what it has swallowed up.
Skeletons of men and beasts of bur-
den, bleached as white as snow by
the action of the salts, lie strewn
about.
“The glittering salt particles which
soon covered us,” Mme. Harry writes,

doom.
“We had covered 80 miles without
mishap when a second’s
caused the car to swerve and the
wheels sank through the treacherous

seen, und the car was lifted out of

Our System of Notation.
Some system of notation has been |
used since time out of memory.
The first record we have of it is of
' figures written with a stick on a flat
surface covered with sand. Before
that all calculations were made witb |
pebbles, beans and the like. Even
now the Chinese do their calculating
with little ‘stones or beads strung
on wires, in a frame, The Romans
first used vertical lines—I, II, II, ete
—to express numbers. The
figures, which we commonly use ut
' the present time, are of much earlier
The Arabic system is chietiy |

venience it affords by giving a figure
u value according to the place it oc-
cupies in the line. By this system
the most enormous sums can be ex-
pressed by the ten little characters
which form the numerical alphabet.

Nine kings, with bent heads, followed

troops, bowed upon their arms.
Following the kings were the princes
of royal blood from all parts of the

George V., son of the monarch they
mourned, A bright sun shone down
upon the splendid procession. The
thunderstorm and heavy rain that
ushered in the day gave way before
the bright rays, and from a spectacu-
lar standpoint the conditions were the
best that could be desired for the
ceremony.
Amid the sweep of the troops and
the march of potentates there was
one whose appearance set the heart
of every spectator throbbing with
sympathy. It was Queen Alexandra,
brave under the blow that almost
felled her, As the good queen, no
whit less revered than her consort,

that airships for public use will soon

met by suitable regulations of air

with which air craft may be used for
illegal purposes, such as smuggling,
will create new problems of public |
law and that their convenience as a
future medium of rapid communica-

mean an economic upheaval in some

Switzerland, which depend so largely
on revenue from = transportation and
